At the PCW Drain there were 22+ Common Chiffchaff with the 2 Siberian Chiffchaff and 2 Firecrest. The Red-necked Grebe was still off Jerry’s Point along with 2 Slavonian Grebe, 12 Black-necked Grebe and 7 Great Northern Diver. A drake Pochard was on Poole Park boating lake, both adult Peregrines were looking soggy on the Asda flats mid-morning and 8 Spoonbill were on Shipstal Point.
